Innocent III's De Miseria as a Gloss on The Man of Law's Prologue and Tale
- Published
- Neuphilologische Mitteilungen 100: 175-85, 1999.
- Description
- The extensive and apparently authorial glosses that accompany MLT often underscore contradictions-spiritual against material, internal against external, ascetic against monetary-between Innocent's treatise and the narrator's perspective; these glosses may be a cue for readers' disapproval of the Man of Law.
